Wine Bar George Features Fun Summer Corkcicle

wine bar george corkcicle

Summer is coming quickly here in Florida and you can be ready with this adorable Corkcicle from Wine Bar George.  The teal and lime color blocks scream “Take me to the pool/beach!”

There are so many reasons to love the Wine Bar George Corkcicles.  The first reason is that they are so pretty.  The second is they come with a free drink at time of purchase (see list below). The third reason is they keep drinks cold for an extended period of time.  And the final reason has become the fact that you get refills on the frozen cocktails for $3 off ($10 instead of $13).  Refills are currently served in a plastic cup due to Coronavirus precautions.

These cute Corkcicles can be purchased at The Basket, a quick-service window connected to Wine Bar George at Disney Springs.  The Corksicles are $35 each plus tax but, as mentioned before, come with one of the frozen drinks listed above.  My favorite is the Dole Whip Frozcato but all of them are refreshing in the Florida heat.

Which one will you try?

Duck Duck Razz from The Boathouse in Disney Springs

Duck Duck Razz

Ahoy! Disney Springs celebrated its first phase of reopening to the public last week, so The Boathouse is now open once more. The Boathouse is well-known for its waterfront views, seafood, oyster bar, and cocktails. One of their iconic cocktail drinks is the Duck Duck Razz, which is equally beautiful and delicious. It even comes with a rubber duck to take home, too! Today, we’ll teach you how to make the Duck Duck Razz drink at home.

Duck Duck Razz

Duck Duck Razz – Drink Recipe

  • 2 parts Raspberry vodka
  • 2 parts peach schnapps
  • 1 part blue curacao
  • Lemon juice
  • Simple syrup

Of course, you have the option to add a cute rubber duck as a garnish to the drink!

The Boathouse has opened its reservation book and all reservations will be guaranteed indoor seating. Reservations are limited since they’re seating the indoor dining restaurant at 25% capacity. However, they do encourage walk-in parties in the event guests don’t have a reservation. Those who walk-in will be offered outdoor seating on the patio. Of course, seating space is limited.

Besides dining, guests at Disney Springs can also visit the Boathouse Boatique and ride the Amphicars. They are complying with CDC guidelines in regards to table spacing. All guests visiting will be asked to follow sanitation guidelines at Disney Springs.

Let us know your favorite memories of The Boathouse if you’ve been there in the past. Also, consider ordering a Duck Duck Razz while enjoying the waterfront view!

Can You Conquer These 5 Disney World CHALLENGES?

We all have a little bit of a competitive streak (Disney board games are the bomb.)!

Cinderella Castle and Main Street, U.S.A. in Disney World

That’s why conquering Disney World challenges is so satisfying. These are some of the BIGGEST challenges out there that we dare you to complete during your next Disney vacation!

If you can complete them all, you can officially be deemed a seasoned Disney World pro! ?

Mickey Bar

Let’s take a look at what you’re in for!

All 4 Parks in One Day

Visiting all four theme parks in a day? Seems like a piece of cake, right?? Well… we’re making this a CHALLENGE for a reason!

Once you go to a park, you have to do four things: ride an attraction, watch a show or film, take a photo with a character, and get something to eat or drink before moving on to the next park.

Does Everyone Want To Ride Splash Mountain??

You could even make it MORE of a challenge by having to use a different form of transportation every time you go to a new park (and you can’t reuse the ones from before)! HINT: Start in Magic Kingdom and take the monorail to Epcot, before moving on from there. ?

Every “Mountain” in Disney World

Ain’t no mountain high enough, friends! So, that means it’s time to conquer ALL the attractions with mountains in Disney World. This challenge is especially fun since you’ll even get to visit both waterparks for a day of splashing around and soaking in some good ol’ Vitamin D!

While you’re in Magic Kingdom, you’re going to want to hop onto Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, and Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.

Big Thunder Mountain

After you’ve made your way to Expedition Everest in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, you’ll want to hop on over to the waterparks.

First on the agenda, you’ll want to take a wicked ride on Mount Gushmore at Blizzard Beach and then visit Mount Mayday at Typhoon Lagoon.

Typhoon Lagoon

Seven mountain rides in one day is daunting but totally doable (if you’re up for the challenge!).

The BIGGEST Snacks on Property

You guys know that some of the portions are HUGE in Disney World (best bang for your buck, though!).
And, while we’re big fans of snack crawls, we think the biggest food challenge is trying to finish all of these MASSIVE sized snacks at the parks and resorts!

Samantha Sterling Punch Bowl

We’re talkin’ about The Edison Punch Bowl, Kitchen Sink at Beaches and Cream, Buttermilk Pancake Tower at STK Orlando, Gibson S’mores Baked Alaska at The Boathouse, and ALL the specialty Dole Whips on property (ok, these aren’t massive sized but there are massive amounts OF them!). Yeah, we’re totally drooling just thinking about them… .

Visit EVERY Country in the World Showcase

The World Showcase in Epcot is one of our FAVORITE places to stroll around when we’re in the parks. Each country has something special to offer, even if it’s just admiring the buildings (that architecture is so detailed!!).

The next time you’re in Epcot, spend some time at each of the 11 World Showcase Pavilions to say you’ve conquered them all. 

Mexico Pavilion

But, like all good challenges, there’s a rule! You have to either visit an attraction or show, take a photo with a character, or grab a snack or a drink once you visit a pavilion. You never know — you might find some hidden spot or details along the way (have you been lucky enough to spot the Viking sword in Norway??).

Eating ALL the Mickey Treats

There are SO many different Mickey treats on property (it IS Disney World after all. ?)! And, if you’re up to one of the ULTIMATE challenges, you can bring your friends and family members along with you to try them. Oh, did we mention there’s 19 of them?! PHEW. Keep in mind Disney is ALWAYS coming up with new Mickey-fied treats, so the list could keep growing!

Mickey Candy Apple

On top of the classics — Mickey Premium Bars, Mickey Candy Apples, Mickey Rice Krispies, and Mickey Waffles — you can also get unique treats like the Mickey House-made Pecan Praline and Mickey Chili Pepper Chocolates.

Pecan Praline

Since there are so many, you could spread the Mickey snacks over the course of your trip (instead of having to get them all at once). Plus, there are enough goodies to go around so you can share them and save some for later.

Think you can tackle any of those challenges? Believe it or not, we’ve done them ALL, so we believe in you! The best part about these challenges is that you can not only challenge yourself, but make a little competition with your friends! Drinks at La Cava del Tequila on whoever loses?? ? For even MORE ideas, check out our DFB Video on ride challenges below!

And, if you love this video, there’s plenty more for you to enjoy over on our DFB YouTube Channel!
